Repeating: Carolina, Cutler not a match

With all the buzz in Carolina country about Cutler, we thought it worthwhile to once again say here that Cutler isn't Carolina's kind of player and making a trade for him doesn't fit in the team's plans. As much as some Carolina fans don't want to hear it, dealing for Cutler simply isn't something the Panthers are interested in doing.

Cutler is extremely talented, but there are questions about his leadership ability, which have been magnified by his refusal to make amends with the Broncos in recent weeks after being hurt that McDaniels originally wanted to replace him with Matt Cassel.

As for trading Julius Peppers for Cutler, which has been discussed by fans on blogs and message boards, Denver is not one of the four teams for which Peppers wants to play, despite the fact that the Broncos plan to play a 3-4 defense.

Mods, feel free to merge this. I just couldn't resist :lol:

Yasinskas chimes in too, giving Mortensen the benefit of a doubt, but adding his own insight.

ESPN's Chris Mortensen thinks the Panthers could be a contender because they could offer disgruntled defensive end Julius Peppers in a trade. Hey, it makes sense on a lot of levels and both teams could get rid of headaches. I'm thinking the Panthers probably would have to add a draft pick or two along with Peppers to make a deal work.

But keep in mind that moves like this are totally out of character for coach John Fox and general manager Marty Hurney, who have a strong loyalty to incumbent quarterback Jake Delhomme. Sure, there may be some questions about Cutler, but the Panthers already have plenty of questions with Peppers.

I still think it's a long shot that Carolina even gets involved in the Cutler situation. But you have to at least wonder about the possibility because opportunities to get a guy who already has pretty much established himself as a franchise quarterback don't come around very often. Might be time for the Panthers to consider going off their usual path.

Could Carolina be a Cutler possibility

Basic summary: He thinks they should, but he doesn't believe they will.

He's wrong in the first sentence of your quote

Aw did I get under your skin that much 'lil Scotty?

This whole thread is an idiotic fallacy since I never said that thinking the FO wouldn't go for Cutler makes you a joke or a FO slurper. I slammed DG for his unprofessional blogs where he insulted his readers and for never EVER sharply criticizing John Fox/Marty Hurney/Panthers FO at all.

Charles Chandler is at least a straight news guy.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
